My interest in George Whitefield was first stirred by John Piper in his biographical sketches at his annual pastors conference. His talk was entitled: "I Will Not Be a Velvet-Mouthed Preacher!” The Life and Ministry of George Whitefield: Living and Preaching as Though God Were Real (Because He Is), you can listen or watch the viedo at the link above. In preperation for the pastors conference I read Dallimore's book George Whitefield. I found it exrtemly readable and enlightening.
This recent release of Lloyd-Jones in this short documentery is a real gem. Two great preachers loved Whitefield as a pointer to Christ.
The whole world is my parish. Wheresoever my Master calls me I am ready to go and preach the everlasting Gospel. George Whitefield
